Home to the 11th Duke and Duchess of Marlborough and
birthplace of Sir Winston Churchill, Blenheim Palace is a true
masterpiece of 18th Century Baroque architecture. Discover the
beauty of this World Heritage Site amongst over 2000 acres of
Capability Brown parkland and Formal Gardens. The
exquisite Baroque Palace is surrounded by sweeping lawns,
formal gardens and the magnificent Lake.

Inside, the scale of the Palace is beautifully balanced by
the intricate detail and delicacy of the carvings, the hand
painted ceilings and the amazing porcelain collections,
tapestries and paintings displayed in each room.

The Palace and its Formal Gardens and Park were created a
World Heritage Site in 1987 and a great deal of restoration and
conservation work has been undertaken in recent
years. Your visit makes an important contribution to the
on-going restoration and conservation programmes which are
necessary to ensure the Palace and its wonderful grounds are
preserved for future generations.

Situated in Woodstock, just 8 miles from Oxford, the Palace
was created a World Heritage site in 1987.
